The short version of my question is whether the cvs tag RELENG_6_2
refers to the latest on the 6.2 STABLE branch or the 6.2 RELEASE Branch.
RELENG_6 - actual -STABLE
RELENG_6_2 - actual -RELEASE-pX
-RELEASE are taken off -STABLE at predefined times, and as such we can
say, that -RELEASE is snapshot from -STABLE at the date of new release.
Development is being done in -STABLE.
So if you want to have current release with it's patchlevels as they
are, use RELENG_6_2.
I wish to make some minor local modifications to my system running 6.2
RELEASE p4. So far, I've been maintaining my system using csup with a
sup file based on
/usr/share/examples/cvsup/standard-supfile
But my local changes get overwritten with each new update using csup. I
was advised earlier on this list to use cvs instead (which I thought
csup did, but now I see that csup (and cvsup) will use "checkout" mode
instead of "CVS mode" unless I'm on the bleeding edge.
Copy this file somewhere else, like /usr/local/etc and modify it as you
need. Whole cvsup command would look like:
# cvsup -L 2 /usr/local/etc/stable-supfile
kind regards,
Martin
